Abstract: A media feed mechanism includes a picking device (12), a first feedroller (14)
and a second feedroller (21). The picking device (12) picks a sheet of media (13)
from a media source. The first feedroller (14) moves the sheet of media (13) along a
feed media path. During initial feeding of the sheet of media (13), the first feedroller
(14) rolls in a forward direction feeding the sheet of media (13) forward and the
second feedroller (21) turns in a reverse direction preventing the sheet of media (13)
from progressing past a nip (19) of the second feedroller (21). This results in skew
correction. After skew correction is performed, the second feedroller (21) turns in the
forward direction advancing the sheet of media (13) for printing.

Abstract: An encryption key distribution method capable of performing fast roaming by
differentially distributing encryption keys in advance, according to access authorization
classes, in a wireless access network and a roaming method using distributed encryption
keys are provided. The encryption key distribution method comprises: receiving a
command to communicate with an access point not available for communication using an
encryption key currently selected in the encryption key set; determining access
authorization of the access point not available for communications; selecting an
encryption key from the encryption key set obtained in advance corresponding to the
determined access authorization; and using the selected encryption key to encrypt a
transmission message and communicate with the access point not available for
communication. The method reduces the delay time, which is caused by encryption key
distribution while a wireless terminal is traveling, such that roaming and a hand-off are
carried out quickly and safely, and user convenience and safe transmission of data are
achieved.

Abstract: A method for adaptive long-term filtering of an audio signal, such as a
decoded speech signal. The method includes measuring a smoothed
periodicity of an audio signal segment, such as an audio frame, wherein the
smoothed periodicity is measured by low-pass filtering an instantaneous
periodicity of the audio signal segment. The periodicity of the audio signal
segment is then increased in a manner that depends upon whether the
smoothed periodicity is less than a predetermined threshold. By utilizing a
smoothed periodicity measurement in this fashion, more accurate control of
the post-filter is provided as compared to conventional solutions.
Additionally, the method includes deriving filters by interpolating between
filter responses of adjacent audio signal segments to minimize distortion at
segment boundaries.

Abstract: The invention concerns a process for producing transgenic eucaryotic cells, particularly plants, which comprises: contacting a culture of untransformed cells with an inhibitor of poly-(ADP ribose) polymerase for a period of time sufficient to reduce the response of the cultured cells to stress and to reduce their metabolism. The untransformed cells are then contacted with foreign DNA comprising at least one gene of interest under condtitions in which the foreign DNA is taken up by the untransformed cells and thhe gene of interest is stably integrated in the nuclear genome of the untransformed cells to produce the transgenic cells. Optionally, the transgenic cells are recovered from the culture. Preferably, the inhibitor is niacinamide, preferably at a concentration of about 200mg/l to 500 mg/l and the untransformed cells are cultured in a medium containing the inhibitor for a period of time of approximately 3 to 14 days prior to the contacting with the foreign DNA. The invention also relates to a plant having in the nuclear genome of its cells foreign DNA integrated only in the regions of the nuclear genome that are transcriptionally active in cells of the plant wwhen the cells are treated with an effective amount of a PARP inhibitor for a period of time ssufficient to reduce cell metabolism to a state where gene expression is essentially limited to genes expressed irrespective of the differentiated or physiological condition of the cell.

Abstract: The present invention provides a touch panel input device that reliably prevents degradation of a piezoelectric substrate. During inactive periods in which a touch panel input device is not used, the connection between a set of output terminals of an AC power supply circuit and a set of associated drive electrodes on the piezoelectric substrate is switched with a selector switch so that the drive electrodes are shorted. During inactive periods, no DC potential is applied to the set of drive electrodes even if a charged conductive body comes into contact with the drive electrodes or a drive power source pattern connected thereto. This makes it possible to prevent the degradation of the piezoelectric substrate.
